The
next wave of home consoles, including Xbox 720 or PlayStation 4
(PlayStation Orbis) need to make better conditions and more open to
offer when it comes to free updates for games, at least according to
some developers and publishers.To
update or patch for games on current consoles, including Xbox 360 or
PlayStation 3, Fri developers and publishers need to do it and submit
for approval from Microsoft or Sony.The company said it could take several weeks, during which players of games left with real problems and bugs.According
to several developers recently, what needs to change with the next
generation of devices, because they want the same freedom they get on
platforms such as PC, Facebook or mobile ones."Sometimes
it's expensive, there are a lot of bureaucracy, even if you want those
little things to do," said Ubisoft Massive David Polfeldt Gamasutra's
policy update on the current consoles.His
voice is supported by Christian Svensson, senior vice president at
Capcom, who also wants the update to a job without experience."I
hope for a much smoother for updates to the consumer, capable of a much
faster recovery between the two as content is submitted and when the
content is online for the consumer, a superior level of service to
offer" he said.These
applications can be solved by implementing a number of systems in the
wings, enabling developers to make their games on the fly, without you
through the approval, as executive Capcom."I hope that the networking process and in the future are built with this in mind," said Svensson. "I
would like more server-based backends that more developer and publisher
control to see, rather than being forced through systems that are
little more pre-defined by the first party. This would be the online
experiences that are not currently available on the console market. "At
present, however, nothing concrete is known about the next generation
consoles, since neither Sony nor Microsoft are willing to admit they are
working on new devices.

Samsung introduced the note by Galaxy in Canada in February. All three major carriers, Telus, Rogers and Bell added the smartphone to their portfolios.Like

This

Ericsson Walkman active and live with the end of May / early JuneThese
devices are powered by Android 2.3 Gingerbread for the moment, and the
upgrade will allow users with many improvements over the older version
of the OS.To
ensure that users are aware of what is coming the way, Sony has
provided a mobile variety of details about this update in a recent blog."When
it comes to the ICS is a major update of Android, and there are many
things that have changed with the release of gingerbread. Some of these
changes affect the performance and stability of the system, eg by using
more CPU power and RAM, "the holding."We
are currently adapting our ICS Xperia smartphones to work in 2011, all
of which are built on a platform with a single core Qualcomm and 512 MB
RAM."Sony
also notes that the use of resources in ICS is sometimes heavier in
comparison with Android 2.3, but they managed to correctly make the
operating system optimized for use on devices Xperia find.Some
of the major changes that users will face during the update to ICS
relate to the user interface, which includes the theme Holo. "More

leads to more RAM memory.And
with 340MB of RAM to 512 are reserved for the Linux user space in the
ice cream sandwich, heavy RAM usage can sometimes be a bit of a problem.However,
as mentioned above, Sony says that they were able to address some of
these gaps to answer, and that users will experience in making Android
4.0 will live up to expectations."So
we not only optimize the management of RAM using RAM for internal
applications as well as possible, but we will also introduce a
performance assistant at startup when running ICS," the company notes."In
this wizard performance, you can enable and disable some services that
you might not want to run on your phone, the phone performance
optimization."

Even
if the HDD market is expected to have more problems this year, with
rising prices and all, IDC estimates that the opposite will occur.Not
that those responsible for these storage devices will not go through
difficult times, of course, but analysts still believe in the general
level of navigation for the year will increase.The
percentage is estimated at 7.7%, although this is true, it will not be
due to the interest of consumers as it will be for both the natural
disasters of 2011.The earthquake in Japan (March 2011) and floods in Thailand (fourth quarter), shipments fell 4.5% last year.As
such, even if prices are high across the hard disk (and will remain so
even after the fall in April), analysts are optimistic from that
perspective.Meanwhile,
hard drive vendors use this mess as an opportunity to the standard
price reset after the "erosion" that began in 2009."In
many ways, the HDD industry will jointly press the" Reset "button. A
reset of the structure of the HDD industry should enable the
participants remaining HDD industry to reduce prices slowly drive the
current level with a rate
that has value to customers while at the same time sufficient funds are
available to new HDD technology needed for the hard drive capacity,
performance, reliability, energy consumption and improve security to
develop, "said John Rydning, Vice- president of research, hard drives at IDC."However,
the growth in the long term can only be achieved if the other
participants storage and storage solution providers with a wide range of
products for a wide range of markets."Cleaning
and repair of factory buildings will be flooded in the first half of
2012, which means that the supply level before the flood of components
and complete assemblies will not return until the third quarter of this
year.
